Description
Great technology provides you with even more peace of mind when you add the 2nd generation Nest Protect wi-fi smoke and carbon monoxide alarm to your home or office. This combination smoke and carbon monoxide detector utilizes wi-fi to send low-battery, smoke, carbon monoxide and sensor alarms to your smartphone or tablet. It all runs through the included app which includes voice alarms, safety check-ups, sound checks and tests. It can even detect different levels of smoke and carbon monoxide. You'll also be able to hush the alarm from your phone.
- Sends alerts to your phone in case you aren't home
- The split-spectrum sensor detects fast and slow burning fires
- Working WI-F connection: 802.11 b/g/n 2.4GHz
- Six long-life batteries (energizer ultimate lithium -L91 AA)
- Keeps you safe and sound for up to 10 years
- It can see the poisonous carbon monoxide you can't
- It looks for steam to cut down on false alarms from a nice, long shower
- When you walk underneath it at night, Pathlight will light your way
- A green glow when you turn off the lights means no lowbattery chirps at 2 AM

I have the nest on my ceiling. I can’t seem to unlock it to change the battery. I rotate it a bit and gently pull on it. Any clues ?
You need to rotate it about 45 degrees and it should pull right off. This will align the 3 tabs so it will come right off.

Will this still sound an alarm say in the middle of the night while your sleeping if your wifi goes out? I live in the country where internet is not reliable at all.
No. It never sounded alarm, except the light will indicate in yellow, instead of flashing green when ambient light goes low (when turning off house lights). Or on your app. I never checked if there is a setting in the app to sound an alarm when wifi is lost. Wifi is used to communicate with other Nest detectors in case of an emergency.

I live in a multi level house where 3 sets of alarms are required. If one Nest Protect senses smoke will they all ring?
Yes. Check you nest app on your phone or tablet and it should indicate if green that it is part of the networked set of alarms.

Do they expire?
Yes like all other smoke detectors there is an expiry date on them. On the back of the unit there should be a field identifying replace by date just below the serial number.

When you use his on an interconnected circuit does every alarm need to be a nest or can you have nests and regular hard wired alarms?
They all have to be nest.
The wire that regular interconnected units use to communicate isn’t used by the nest. Nest uses a frequency to communicate with each other, so the nest won’t be able to communicate with a regular smoke detector and visa versa

If I have 3 detectors hard wired together, if one goes off, do they all go off? Does this unit satisfy the Ontario fire code? (flashing strobe, etc.)
Not sure about Ontario code, but I have 3 of them, and they will announce an emergency using a loud voice, if you don't act (press the button or use your phone, then an alarm will be triggered, the light will come on so even if there is no power you still see around. better then to put it where the exit are.. so you can see.
Also the voice will tell you the room name of where the fire is (where the detector is installed) It is also compatible with google home, IFTTT and many other home automation like MyHarmony (remote control) so in my case it will turn off the tv and the sound system so you can ear the alarm.
It does also many other detection... and it will self test every month and send you a report.
It's the best!

A MUST HAVE !!
I Love this Unit. I bought this unit to replace a "traditional" CO/Smoke detector as it was going off for no reason. I was unable to get any resolution from the company despite the recall status on ALOT of their units. I have not have any issues and love that I can get alerts and check my status on my phone. I have 2 small dogs and this has been a great weight lifted from my shoulders. The old alarm would go off while I was at work and when I get home the poor little things had been listening to the noise for who knows how long!.
I will be replacing my 2nd floor unit in the very near future with another one of these. I think it's fantastic that they can communicate with each other.

Easy Install
Very nice looking on ceiling, much more modern looking than old detectors. Setting up pretty easy, although had an issue changing its language from French to English (once app is installed on your phone and detector added, had to delete it from app and then go through process again to see area in app to change language - weird). I also have access to its settings via my laptop, but you must initially set it up from your phone. As I bought the battery version, I keep the round 'light' on dim for battery life. While its more expensive than the old smoke detectors, I think its worth the difference. Like the fact I could be alerted via my phone of any smoke/fire etc.

Trust is EVERYTHING!
I absolutely LOVE my Nest Protect detectors! But more importantly, I genuinely TRUST them to protect the most important and precious thing in my life...my wife (though I guess my house is kind of important too). From the moment I held the box, through every step, to that moment when I completed the setup, saw the green light, and heard a reassuring voice tell me everything was working properly, I was impressed! This is a very solid and well built product, and appears to have been extremely well thought out and designed. I look forward to enjoying it (and trusting it) until it's time to replace it...with another Nest Protect, of course!

Missing Google home integration
If you are purchasing these because you are looking to have them integrated with your smart home, don't bother as the don't. The units work well as smoke/CO2 detectors, they link together via their own WiFi network, perform a monthly sound check on their own, and provide remote notifications via the nest app. What's missing is integration with the rest of the Google ecosystem in the Google home app. I purchased the units that I have 2+ years ago, just after Google killed the works with nest program, expecting that I could at the very least setup my hue lights to turn on with an alarm but the do not connect to anything except the Nest app.

Nest Protect
Conventional fire alarms are fine "when" someone's home to be notified there's a problem. But what good are they when you're not and no one's there to take action? I got the Nest Protect to be notified when I'm home AND when I'm not. Getting an alert on my phone anywhere I am allows me to notify the fire department there's a problem BEFORE it becomes unmanageable. Imagine your conventional fire alarm screaming there's a fire while it takes hold and does significant damage OR it becomes a total loss because no one's there to report it. With Nest Protect this wont happen because your notified at the first instance of trouble, anywhere at anytime.

Best on the market, still room for improvement
Every time I cook Turkey burgers on the stove, these go off before they’ve burned or even reached a safe temp to eat. At least I can silence them from my phone, unlike normal smoke detectors (provided you are close enough- you can’t silence from another room). I’d understand if I burned the burgers or even had the detector in the same room, but it seems it’s a little over-sensitive. That being said, most models go off with boiling water too, not Nest. And it’s good to know I’m alerted away from home if there’s a problem. If you have Nest Cams as well you can use them to see what’s happening- which is useful if you need to alert the fire department.
